   Went in for an early Sunday supper at 3. Bar was full and there was one large party at a table. We told the hostess we had a reservation but she didn't acknowledge me and just sat us (causing Open Table to think we ditched the reservation!) A few things - food was fine. They seem to have a Hot Honey fetish right now, as at least 5 dishes used it. Peach pizza was good, son's burger looked good, as did hubby's short rib panini. Whipped goat cheese app was DELICIOUS, but pricey at $16. (All apps seemed pretty pricey for what they were). Over all it was good food BUT spending over $100 for one app, 3 sandwiches and one beer seemed a lot. Service was fine, but there were little weird things. When he brought the app plates, the server even rubed his finger one one to get fingerprints off. I asked him to replace the plate, as he was walking away after not even trying! He did so, but we did noticed that most plates and utensils were fingerprinted. Ick. Also, they were sweeping the dining room while we ate, including under the table just to our side. That is also icky. Overall, everything was fine. Nothing glaring. But between the ick factor and the prices and the redundancy of some menu items, we won't return.

   My wife,4year,1year son’s and I were seated outside for brunch. We asked for a high chair and the maître de brought us one. She says it’s broken and the 5 they own are in the same condition can we leave are 1 year old in a car seat. “Are you serious 🧐 “ they bring us two waters a coffee, a menu we order. They bring me a coffee and we sit outside for 50 minutes. After 50 minutes, I get up, go inside and say to my waiter, I have been here for 50 minutes. The people who came in after me are eating. You have minutes to have my food outside for my family. If not, we are going to leave. After waiting for five minutes, my family and I packed up as the manager comes outside and says hey we’re gonna put your food in now. Can you imagine that I would never suggest going to this place to anyone.

   A good experience as always and the food was very good. However, the service and food delivery was slow. It was crowded, but the restaurant seemed a little understaffed for a Saturday night.

   Eggs Benedict was poorly done. I’m not sure the chef had prepared one before.

    We come here regularly for dinner but today was our first time for brunch, and it was spectacular. We both started off with the Maple Almond Cinnamon Bun and loved it. My wife ordered the Chef's Hash while I had the Pancakes with Bacon and Sausage. So tasty. Now we just need to get here for brunch more!! Great service by Alanna and special thanks to Parker.
